Booking Through Thursdays: Interview Part 1

Booking Through Thursdays is a weekly meme- this weeks question is: If you could interview anyone who would it be and what would you ask them?

Did you write as a child?
Will there be any more Nursery Crime books?
Have you always been a fan of Nursery Rhymes?
